Deep learning finds significant coronary stenosisNovember 20, 2018 -- A deep-learning algorithm can improve identification of functionally significant coronary artery stenosis on coronary CT angiography, potentially reducing the number of patients who need to receive invasive coronary angiography, according to Dutch research published online on 12 November in European Radiology. Discuss

Why AI's not ready for routine adoptionNovember 14, 2018 -- Artificial intelligence (AI) is not yet ready for routine adoption, and radiologists must develop new skills to work effectively in a machine-learning environment, a U.S. expert told delegates at the European Society of Medical Imaging Informatics meeting. Discuss

AI's akin to x-ray in revolutionary potential, Italians sayNovember 8, 2018 -- Artificial intelligence (AI) will change radiology practice more than anything since Wilhelm Röntgen's discovery of x-ray, according to researchers from Italy. In new analysis published on 24 October, they assert that radiologists can play a leading role in this upcoming period of rapid change. Discuss

Prokop: AI will enable you to focus on what mattersNovember 7, 2018 -- Many aspects of imaging are dull and should be automated, Dr. Mathias Prokop said at the annual European Society of Medical Imaging Informatics meeting on 3 November. Artificial intelligence (AI) will create the space and time for radiologists to concentrate on what really matters. Discuss
